​Cure Thrush with Pantry Items - August 2019

​Whilst taking a course of antibiotics recently I developed thrush. The fungal cream stung like blazes and seemed to irritate more than cure. Preferring not to buy that expensive little "cure" tablet unless I really had to I researched home remedy methods. In the past, I had tried natural yoghurt but found this a bit messy. I had also used a weak solution of apple cider vinegar in water with some effect. This time I bathed the inflamed area with the apple cider solution then applied coconut oil. BLISS! The problem cleared up within three days. Apparently, coconut oil has anti-bacterial/ anti-fungal properties. It's also a very gentle emollient and it smells nice too.
